What are transferred in an oxidation-reduction reaction (1 point)?

1 answer:

7 0

electrons are transferred in a oxidation-reduction reaction

oxidation reduction chemical equation involve electrons transfer between two species. In this reduction-oxidation type of chemical equation oxidation number of molecule, atoms or ion changes by gaining or losing electrons,that is there an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent in the reaction.

The statement "electrons have a negative charge" is true. Select the correct evidence scientist have that proves this statement

Kryger [21]

The question is incomplete but i will try to offer as much help as i can.

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The electron was discovered by J.J Thompson. His model of the atom was called the plum-pudding model of the atom.

He discovered that cathode rays being negatively charged particles were deflected by a magnet in just the same way as moving, negative electrically charged particles.

Similarly, in an electric field, they are deflected towards the positive plate of the electrostatic field which shows that they are negatively charged.

A 3.4 g sample of an unknown monoprotic organic acid composed of C,H, and O is burned in air to produce 8.58 grams of carbon dio

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$C_7H_6O_2$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, we can divide the problem in three stages: (1) determine the empirical formula with the combustion analysis, (2) compute the molar mass of acid via the moles of the acid in the neutralization and (3) determine the molecular formula.

(1) In this case, since 8.58 g of carbon dioxide are released, we can first compute the moles of carbon in the compound:

$n_C=8.58gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44.01gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.195molC$

And the moles of hydrogen due to the produced 1.50 grams of water:

$n_H=1.50gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18.02gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O} =0.166molH$

Next, to compute the mass and moles of oxygen, we need to use the initial 3.4 g of the acid:

$m_O=3.4g-0.195molC*\frac{12.01gC}{1molC}-0.166molH*\frac{1.01gH}{1molH} =0.89gO\\\\n_O=0.89gO*\frac{1molO}{16.0gO}=0.0556molO$

Thus, the subscripts in the empirical formula are:

$C=\frac{0.195}{0.0556}=3.5 \\\\H=\frac{0.166}{0.0556}=3\\\\O=\frac{0.0556}{0.0556}=1\\\\C_7H_6O_2$

As they cannot be fractions.

(2) In this case, since the acid is monoprotic, we can compute the moles by multiplying the concentration and volume of KOH:

$n_{KOH}=0.279L*0.1mol/L\\\\n_{KOH}=0.0279mol$

Which are equal to the moles of the acid:

$n_{acid}=0.0279mol$

And the molar mass:

$MM_{acid}=\frac{3.4g}{0.0279mol} =121.86g/mol$

(3) Finally, since the molar mass of the empirical formula is:

7*12.01 + 6*1.01 + 2*16.00 = 122.13 g/mol

Thus, since the ratio of molar masses is 122.86/122.13 = 1, we infer that the empirical formula equals the molecular one:

$C_7H_6O_2$

Best regards!

N the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum (gains or loses)

Volgvan

Answer:

loses, gains

Explanation:

In the ionic compound aluminum selenide, each atom of aluminum will lose electrons while each atom of selenium will gain the electrons.

An ionic compound is an interatomic bond formed between a metal and non-metal. The metal is less electronegative compared to the non-metal. In this case, the metal will lose electrons to become positively charged whereas the non-metal, selenium will gain the electron to become negatively charged.

The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions leads to the formation of the ionic bond.

KIM [24]

Based on the observations from, the substance that water is more attracted to are polar substances.

<h3>What is the Polarity of water?</h3>

Water is a compound made up of 2 atoms of hydrogen and 1 atom of oxygen.

Water molecule is polar due to the unequal sharing of electrons between the atoms and the unsymmetrical shape of the molecule.

Since water molecules are polar, they are more attracted to molecules that are also polar.

Thus, based on the observations from, the substance that water is more attracted to are polar substances.
